HDMI

Output Resolution

You can specify the output resolution for the HDMI out- puts and have the AV receiver upconvert the picture res- olution as necessary to match the resolution supported by your TV.

See the “Video Resolution Chart” on page 98 to see how the AV receiver handles video input at different resolu- tions.

Through: Select this to pass video through the AV receiver at the same resolution and with no conversion.

Auto: Select this to have the AV receiver automati- cally convert video at resolutions not supported by your TV.

480p (480p/576p): Select this for 480p or 576p output

and video conversion as necessary.

720p: Select this for 720p output and video conver- sion as necessary.

1080i: Select this for 1080i output and video conver- sion as necessary.

Zoom Mode

This setting determines the aspect ratio that will be used for 480i, 480p, 576i, and 576p input signals when they are output by the HDMI OUT. This setting only applies when the HDMI Output Resolution setting is set to 1080i or 720p.

Normal:

Full:

Audio TV Out

This setting determines whether audio received by an HDMI input is output by the HDMI outputs. You may want to change this setting to On if your TV is connected to an HDMI output and you want to listen to audio from an HDMI component through your TV’s speakers. Nor- mally, it should be set to Off.

Off: HDMI audio is not output (default).

On: HDMI audio is output.

Notes:

If On is selected and the signal can be output by the TV, the AV receiver will output no sound through its speakers.

When TV Control is enabled, this setting is set to Auto.

With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be output even if On is selected.

When the Audio TV Out setting is set to On, or TV Control is set to Enable and you’re listening through your TV’s speakers (see page 36), if you turn up the AV receiver’s volume control, the sound will be output by the AV receiver’s speakers. To stop the AV receiver’s speakers producing sound, change the set- tings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV receiver’s volume.

Lip Sync

The Lip Sync function can automatically synchronize HDMI audio and video that’s gotten out of sync due to the complex digital video processing being performed by your HDMI-compatible TV. With HDMI Lip Sync, the audio delay required to synchronize the audio and video is calculated and applied automatically by the AV receiver.

Disable: HDMI lip sync disabled.

Enable: HDMI lip sync enabled.

Notes:

This function works only if your HDMI-compatible TV supports HDMI Lip Sync.

You can check the amount of delay being applied by the HDMI Lip Sync function on the A/V Sync screen (see page 79).

x.v.Color

If your HDMI source and HDMI-compatible TV both support the “x.v.Color,” you can enable “x.v.Color” on the AV receiver with this setting.

Disable: “x.v.Color” disabled.

Enable: “x.v.Color” enabled.

Control

This function allows RIHD-compatible components connected via HDMI to be controlled with the AV receiver.

Disable: RIHD disabled.

Enable: RIHD enabled.
